Who was really running the country while Autopen Joe Biden snoozed and drooled?

A new analysis of former President Joe Biden’s use of autopens again raised the question: Who, exactly, was running the country?

The fact that virtually every document Joe “signed” as prez, on top of everything else we know about his mental decline, seems the final proof that the buck wasn’t stopping with him.

The Heritage Foundation dove deep on official documents from Biden’s time in office and found that nearly all bore the robot’s signature; the chief exception was the one dropping his bid for re-election.

Which raises the question: What did the president even know about what he was signing?

Fine, other presidents sometimes use the autopen, but none has shown the same symptoms of senility and dementia — issues we now know plagued Biden from his first days in the Oval Office.

House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) has publicly named at least one Biden executive order (mandating a pause on liquid natural gas exports) that went out the door with the president having a fundamentally incorrect idea what the order actually did.

What other orders did Biden “sign” under similar misunderstandings?

Were there any orders he never saw at all?

And who was actually deciding what got signed?

Consider the flurry of left-pleasing executive orders in Biden’s final weeks in office — a blitzkrieg that supposedly originated with a man who months earlier on national TV had revealed himself to be incapable of basic argument or even recalling simple facts.

Thanks to the determined professional incuriosity of our journalist class throughout Biden’s decline, it’s likely impossible to ever be sure just who called which shots.

That White House, however decisions got made, gave America a string of disasters: an open border, Bidenflation and runaway federal debt, the Afghan bugout debacle, wars in Europe and the Middle East and

One way to get this investigated might be to force the issue: bring charges against someone who was pardoned and make them defend that pardon in court.

The 25th Amendment was passed for this very reason. Shadowy figures who were not elected to the office should not be allowed to “play president” when the president is incapacitated.

Notice that President Trump is publicly filmed signing all EOs and laws, usually at a press conference?

This is a little unusual and may be very intentional given the Biden auto pen disclosures.

The New York Post

New York city/suburb’s excuse for a right leaning paper

They’re not completely embarrassed to ask this now instead of 3 years ago. Even a year ago

Disgusting

Obumagabe, Susan Rice, and Valerie (the repulsive lizard creature) Jarrett.
Under orders of Soros.

25th amendment?!

And replace him with someone worse, as democrats do? Harris in this case?

Or who? Barrages? Schiff? Newsom? Are you kidding?

The law against cheating in elections is the governing authority in this case

The people have voted Trump in. We’re watching the clean up. Haven’t seen anything yet compared to what’s coming

Power abhors a vacuum. The Biden cabal was composed of left wing lowlifes. Leftist lowlifes ran the country and have nearly destroyed it. Good luck to Trump and Musk. Their task is huge.

IMHO the entire inner circle (including Dr. Jill) just did whatever they wanted.

The Post's request that some assurances be provided in future is inadequate.

This autopen use is tantamount to a hi-jacking of the government.

Let that sink in.

Kash, Bondi, Tulsi....all of 'em must investigate and ID the perps, and then jail them.

If this is not criminal, it should be.

There should be a law (or if required) a constitutional amendment that the President must sign every official document themselves (prohibiting the use of a auto pen).

The auto pen should only be used for non-binding documents such as cards to supporters or routine letters.

Having said that a full investigation needs to be done to find who had control of the auto pen.

Biden was the ideal President for the America hating, globalist Democrats. He was corrupt, amoral, stupid and very pliable.

Barak

A reasonable guess, and a good place to begin factfinding investigations.

And what about Barak's associates and mentors? Do they still keep in touch?

It's not just who controlled the autopen, it's also who had influence and input over the process.

The JD AND Congress should be all over this major, major issue.

Correct.....Trump’s very public EO signings—including read outs of each— tells me he knew long ago what the Heritage Foundation had found and doesn’t intend to let it slide.
